ABSTRACT
Most agricultural fields naturally have within-field variations that may require site-specific
attention for optimum crop performance. These variations are often contiguous, extensive
and not easy to manage since every spot in a paddock is unique. Delineating a paddock into
a few `management zones' is therefore a practical management approach. In this study, yield
